Another great Horatio moment. 😂

Moments like these always make me laugh. 😂

From Episode 3995.

This definitely would be a possibility if it weren’t for the organ completely vanishing into thin air whenever the number of the day was 0, that’s completely supernatural. A.I. couldn’t do that.

And individual pipes (4 and 10) did respond to The Count to reassure him as if each one had minds of their own in Number of the Day: 14, much like the lifelike A.I. in the movie Her.

“Number of the Day: 10” briefly had principal performer David Rudman and supporting performer John Tartaglia as the lead vocals alongside Jerry Nelson. They were also back vocals alongside D’Abruzzo and Lyon. Interestingly, Joey Mazzarino, who performed the Muppet 10, was also a back vocal.

I’ve noticed that for “Number of the Day: 11”, alongside Jerry Nelson (R.I.P.) as the Count, principal performers Martin P. Robinson and David Rudman were briefly lead vocals in the beginning, and shifted from lead vocals to back vocals alongside D’Abruzzo, Lyon, and Tartaglia when the Count spoke.

This was how determined I was to figure out which performers provided their voices for the segments’ chanting bits. Here’s an example of me using vocal splitters on the audio and being able to separate some voices from others. This clip is from “Number of the Day: 10”.

Listen carefully!

Fun fact! Three male performers voiced every third odd-numbered pipe, and two female performers voiced every second even-numbered pipe.

• David Rudman: 1, 7, 13, 19
• John Tartaglia: 3, 9, 15
• Martin P. Robinson: 5, 11, 17
• Fran Brill: 2, 6, 10, 14, 18
• Stephanie D’Abruzzo: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
